[QUOTE="BigBarl, post: 6683426, member: 4533"] if a manufacturer got rid of dealers and did all the servicing and warranty jobs themselves all they would effectively end up doing is employing all the fitters currently employed at the dealers. Dealers won’t carry extra staff for fun as wages will be one of their biggest outgoings and a manufacturer would need nearly as many nationally to physically cover the workload. If a manufacturer took everything in house I think they would be shocked at the little margins some of their kit is traded onto farm at, you would probably more likely see costs go up on both sales and service in my opinion.
